Loading my 52148 Scunci into the back seat of my truck the connector from the bottom of the handle to the top of the unit snapped off. It appeared to have a pivot ball that went into the sweeping unit to move,turn and pivot the sweeper. I could rig it to sort of function but if the lower handle part is available it would be nice to purchase one, if available.

We lost our instructions to the Kirby Shampoo attachement and how to attach it to the main unit, the belt and how to use it. We need complete instructions and explanations on how to use this as we have tried and the belt does not attach to the main unit, the brush does not turn and the hops along the carpet and no water, etc. returns to the tray.
Please help us with as simple and complete instructions as possible.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
LOUIE CAPLAN

First, you'll need to fill the tank with water (warm or cold). There are three fill lines on the side of the tank. Fill to the desired line and add one shampooer tank lid full of Kirby shampoo for each line of water. A full tank will require th ...

On the bottom of the Fantom Fury where it states:"The United States and Canada utility patent....". Now go to the far right end of this statement (the end opposite the spring, well I have a crack in the plastic which, when toggled, moves the entire plastic underside of the vacuum to move. In other words, I think I need an entire bottom plastic plate. The cracked area also makes the foot lever (which lowers or locks the vacuum handle) not work as the crack makes it impossible to work.

Have Fresh Aire 2.1 about 4 years was running great then went dead. I cant find where the fuse is and have unit apart. I plug in no fan dim display shows to errors. Unit was pretty dirty at the time.

Seems brittle and I could break it with trying to pry with augur or sharp screwdiver object.

I'm sorry this may only be a partial help. But fuses are usually very close to the motor, OR where the switch is located. Pretty easy to find by testing but you have to be or so careful you dont electricute yourself. Now if your testing shows v ...

Need proper wiring connections inside unit, where they have pulled apart from squeeze connectors.(Wiring diagram needed) Can someone E-Mail this to me? Fritz (an ''old'' mechanic) Folks I have talked to, say there is no specific model number for these units.

My Roomba Discovery 4210 seems to be dead. Specifically, with or without a battery, and whether on the charging station or plugged directly into the charging unit, I see no lights on the display whatsoever. This unit has a history of killing batteries, but now seems like it is completely dead. I understand that the batteries themselves contain fuses; is there some way to bypass the battery (for now) to verify whether the unit itself is completely dead? I should also note that this is the sec

I need a relay board for a Nutone CV 450 12.6 amp dual motor vacumn unit. Where can I locate one? Part #??? Unit will run by itself, then shut off. Unit wll not run at all. It has a mind of its own. Crossed a couple of wires on one of the relays and the unit runs smooth as silk. I assume its the relay, but can't locate part number.

Eureka Boss Smart Vac 4870 evidentally overheated. Allowed unit to cool and observed a spark/smoke at outlet when it was replugged into the power outlet. Unit will not power up now. Circuit breakers in the home are fine.
Is there a fuse that can be replaced in the unit? Does the unit need to be serviced? Is there a Eureka Authorized Service Center in Orlando, Florida?

Seems Eureka is putting faulty, insufficient wiring in many models, most especially my model (if you do a search of this site, you will be how many people have experienced fried wires and switches). There should be a class-action lawsuit in my opini ...

Hi. We have a Riccar N2100 vacuum cleaner, which has served us well for many, many years. I'd like to attempt a repair on this unit, and looking for advice and/or a parts diagram to proceed.
The unit makes a groaning sound when shut off. The sound tapers off in pitch as the motor and beater bar come to a stop. The sound only happens when the vacuum cleaner is turned off in the normal upright position. The sound does not happen when the lower unit and main housing are both laying flat.

I am having problems with the roller on my Oreck DTX-1300. It turns on and off intermittantly while I'm vacuuming. I have completly taken it apart and cleaned and inspected the roller unit.(I am very much mechanically inclined) This has stumped me, I have checked the electrical from the vacuum to the floor unit, and everything else that I could think of. Question: what does the metal sensore plate on the bottom of the roller unit do?? Anything anybody can tell me, I would greatly appreciate. Cap

Retractable cord not retracting. How do I access roller drum? The two screws inside the main canister only free up the front edge of the upper assembly, does the rubber gasket that goes completely around the machine need to be removed? Is there a technical drawing showing the complete assembly?

I just bought a Hoover Power Drive Concept Two Electronic vacuum from the thrift shop. It only needed two belts and seems powerful. But i don't understand what the small red button on the handle marked "Release Drive" means. Thanks for any insight! Anything else i need to know about this machine? Is it a good one? Are there high-performance bags available for it?
